Recently, Oil Majors, Charterers, and RightShip have taken a stronger stance on crew welfare compliance. Many vessels, including tankers, have been rejected, downgraded, or had commercial eligibility delayed due to non-submission or incomplete submission of the Crew Welfare Self-Assessment (CWSA) on the RightShip platform.
This underscores three realities:
- CWSA submission is no longer optional.
- Failure to submit carries direct commercial consequences.
- Crew welfare is now a core element of governance, due diligence, and chartering eligibility.
Alpha Marine Consulting P.C. supports companies in meeting these expectations with confidence. Our CWSA Support Services include:
- Guidance throughout the RightShip submission process
- Gap analysis and benchmarking
- Development of structured improvement plans
- Training for shore and sea personnel
- Preparation of documentation and compliance tools
- SMS updates aligned with the Questionnaire requirements
We remain committed to assisting shipping companies in achieving full compliance with this requirement.
